What does Government 2.0 look like?, originally uploaded by mangee.

Well, multicoloured postit notes actually. Fits in with web 2.0 nicely. ;)

Seriously - had a good day of thoughtful discussion - and lets hope there is some action.

View the wiki or go see some photos or have a browse of the mind map by Julian. I also jotted down some notes. which probably won't make any sense unless you were there. Hope to mashup with photos and slides...

Narrowly missed registering barcamp.org.nz - Nat got there first. lost my password to domain server - was in keychain at home.

See you there.

21:03:00 - Business.govt.nz

Sure it's got a Microsoft logo at the top, and asp in the url -- but I was surfing around the new business.govt.nz and ended up reading an article on technology basics. Got to love the outdated info you see, and the balanced articles, especially written by Microsoft about Apple.

Here something that fits into the basic knowledge you should have
"Apple claims that its top-end machines are faster than those running Windows. That is a matter of controversy; there are websites devoted to debunking Apple's claims."

Heh. Admittedly it does mention Motorola processors.. I think they went out with the dinosaurs. Intel now ain't it?

I'd better put a 'proper link' though:

business.govt.nz – the New Zealand government business site

business.govt.nz is a free and independent source of New Zealand business resources, and the fast way to find tools and information to help you start, manage or grow your business.
